Pokémon, start your journey from the East Glory Alliance

Zhuang Yan couldn't help but nudge Su Yuan with his elbow, then patted Tang Wenxiu's arm to comfort him.

"It's okay buddy. Even though you didn't have many friends before, you have one now. It's better to make two at a time."

Su Yuan smiled and shook his head. He was indeed a man who could get along well with his father. His speed in making friends was amazing.

Tang Wenxiu also reflected on this.

"Brother Zhuang Yan."

"Why call me big brother? We don't have to be sworn brothers just to be friends. Don't make it sound like you're going to Liangshan. Just call me Zhuang Yan."

Su Yuan scratched his head. No wonder Zhuang Yan was able to travel to so many places alone. His ability in making friends was probably comparable to Xiaozhi's.

No, he still can't compare with Zhiye. Zhiye is a being that even the divine beasts have to pay for him.

"By the way, Brother Zhuang Yan and Brother Su Yuan, what are your ranks? I'll treat you to a meal after you finish the gym competition."

Zhuang Yan glanced at his number.

"I'm number 16, and brother Su Yuan is number 17. It's almost our turn."

Just when a few people were chatting, it was contestant No. 11's turn to take the challenge.

"Well, I'll ask the butler to prepare the dishes so that you two can experience the authentic Dali specialties."

"Butler, I seem to have heard something extraordinary."

After Tang Wenxiu, the strength of the following challengers was obviously lacking. No. 10 and No. 11 failed to pass the first three qualifying rounds, and although challengers No. 12 and 13 successfully obtained the qualification to fight against the gym leader, they failed to defeat Duan Chun's first Pokémon.

Finally, the sound of contestant number 16 coming on stage was heard over the radio.

Zhuang Yan stood up and clapped his hands.

"Okay, it's my turn."

"Come on, Brother Zhuang Yan."

"Come on, Brother Zhuang Yan."

Zhuang Yan grinned and walked towards the contestant channel.

"Su Yuan, you have known Brother Zhuang Yan for a long time, do you know what his trump card is?"

Su Yuan scratched his head and said.

"Ace? I really don't know. I have only seen Zhuang Yan's three Pokémon in actual combat. But if nothing unexpected happens, Zhuang Yan should start with Charizard."

As he spoke, Zhuang Yan appeared on the big screen.

When Tang Wenxiu saw Zhuang Yan's message on the screen, he was stunned.

"Five badges! Brother Zhuang Yan has defeated five gym leaders?!"

"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to get his sixth badge soon."

On the battlefield, Zhuang Yan threw his Poké Ball.

"The decision is yours, go ahead, Charizard!"

"Roar~!"

A pillar of fire shot up into the sky, and the fire-breathing dragon made a domineering appearance

Chapter 61: No way, there won’t be anyone who can use Charizard without a Thunder Fist

In the gym challenge, Zhuang Yan started with Charizard.

Charizard's attributes don't have any advantages against poison-type gyms, but this also shows how confident Zhuang Yan is. Sometimes, this confidence is the key to victory.

"What a domineering fire-breathing dragon!"

Seeing Zhuang Yan's Charizard, Tang Wenxiu couldn't help but praise him.

Even though he had seen many Charizard trainers, he had never seen a Charizard as tall and strong as Zhuang Yan's, and his eyes were filled with an incomparable confidence.

Facing the Charizard in front of him, the gatekeeper felt a little pressure, but in line with his professional ethics, the game had to go on.

"The decision is yours, go ahead, Devourer!"

"Tunha~!"

A purple Pokémon that was more than a meter tall and looked a bit like a slime appeared on the playing field.

"Charizard, use flames!"

"Roar~!"

The Charizard opened its mouth wide and spewed out blazing flames. The fire instantly engulfed the Devourer.

"Tunha~!"

The Devouring Beast howled, and its originally slimy body was actually dried up a bit, with signs of hard lumps and cracks appearing on its skin.

"Such a fierce flame. I'm afraid the Devourer Beast won't be able to hold out for long."

The gatekeeper also responded immediately.

"Swallow Beast, use Thunder Fist!"

"Tunha~!"

The Devourer squirmed its body and rushed directly towards the Charizard. Lightning flashed on its fist and it punched towards the Charizard.

"Charizard, fly to the sky!"

"Whoosh~!"

The Charizard flapped its wings and rushed high into the sky to avoid the attack of the Devourer.

"It's now!"

Zhuang Yan raised his hand and pointed, a confident smile on his face.

"It's over, use Big Word Explosion."

The fire-breathing dragon soaring in the air had flames surging in its mouth. It raised its noble head, and the flames in its mouth accumulated to a critical point.

"Roar~!"

A roar echoed throughout the gym, and flames burst out and hit the ground.

"Bang~!"

The flames burst out, and the raging fire engulfed the entire battlefield.

When the flames died down, all that was left on the ground was an exhausted devouring beast and large charred characters.

"Hmph~!"

The fire-breathing dragon slowly fell back to the ground, with hot air coming out of its nostrils and looking at the gatekeeper with contempt, as if to say, "That's all? It's not enough for me to fight you."

The entire venue was silent for a moment, and then burst into loud applause and cheers.

"Two moves! The battle ended in just two moves! It's incredible!"

Tang Wenxiu said excitedly as he looked at the Charizard on the screen.

Su Yuan was speechless. It seemed that Charizard was just acting when they were fighting against Osmanthus Gym. With the strength it showed, it was possible for a Charizard to kill through the entire Osmanthus Gym.

The first gatekeeper left and Zhuang Yan came to the second level.

With the experience of the previous gatekeeper, the second gatekeeper seemed much calmer.

"You are a good young man, but the test has just begun!"

As he said this, he threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

"Go Super Bad Star!"

A blue Pokémon that looked like a fortress covered with spikes appeared on the field.

"Oh my goodness, he's actually a super bad star."

Looking at the super bad star on the screen, Su Yuan recalled some not-so-pleasant memories.

"What's wrong? Is this Pokémon difficult to deal with?"

"It's a bit tricky indeed. How come you don't know Super Bad Star?"

Tang Wenxiu said frankly.

"I haven't seen this Pokémon very often in Yun Province, but I saw it when I traveled to Qionghai Island. It couldn't have been this big back then. It must have been degenerated."

"That's it."

Su Yuan nodded. It was true that super bad stars and good bad stars could not be found in a mountainous and forested place like Yun Province.

"Well, Super Bad Star is one of the most commonly used Pokémon in the team."

As soon as he heard about the situation, Captain Tang Wenxiu roughly understood what was going on.

"I see. That's not easy to deal with, but I believe in Brother Zhuang Yan."

"Indeed, I believe him. Brother Zhuang Yan will never stop in a place like this."

On the battlefield, the two sides have already started fighting. Relying on its excellent dual resistance and attributes, Super Bad Star remains calm under the fierce flames of Charizard and does not take Charizard's flames seriously at all.

The gatekeeper nodded with satisfaction.

"Young man, now you understand this, things are not as simple as you think."

"Yeah."

Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"I don't think it's that difficult. Charizard uses Earthquake!"

"Roar~!"

The Charizard swooped down from the air and fell to the ground, then stepped on the ground, causing an earthquake.

"Oh, is it a dual-blade Charizard? But it's useless, Super Bad Star uses Bunker!"

The superbad star curled up into a ball, like a solid fortress, and directly withstood the impact of the earthquake.

"Oh, this is the moment I've been waiting for you."

Zhuang Yan grinned, everything was within his calculations.

"Charizard! Attack!"

"Roar~!"

Charizard rushed directly towards Super Bad Star.

"Are you still not giving up? It's no use, Super Bad Star uses poison attack!"

Superbad defeats Bastion and then just sprays stingers in all directions.

The swift Charizard drew a curve in the air, perfectly avoiding the attack of Super Bad Star and successfully approaching Super Bad Star.

"Right now, Charizard, use Thunder Fist!"

"what!"

Under the gatekeeper's surprised gaze, Charizard raised its claws, which were wrapped in lightning. It punched out with a lightning fist and hit Super Bad Star steadily.

"Like my friend said, there won't be anyone who can use Charizard without a Thunder Fist, right?"

The effect was outstanding. Although it failed to kill with one strike, the remaining lightning directly paralyzed the Super Bad Star.

"Haha, it seems like God is on my side. Charizard, finish him off. Use Earthquake!"

"Roar~!"

The Charizard roared and then glided and dived.

"Super Bad Star, use the bunker!"

However, the paralyzed Superbad was completely unable to move.
